Apollo 7 Primed for Friday Launch at Cape Kennedy
Apollo 7 readies for an October 22 liftoff from Cape Kennedy while Apollo 8 is moved to a separate pad for a potential December moon flight. The dual operations showcase rapid-launch capability in America's moon program. Apollo 7, aboard Saturn 1B, aims for an 11 am Friday launch with recovery by the Essex. Apollo 8, using Saturn 5, will attempt a Christmas-time lunar orbit mission if Apollo 7 proceeds as planned.
